It won't mean much to you all, but I've been doing really well these past few days.
Within the first three days of school, I have:
x Asked a stranger for a pencil
x Touched a number pad used by other people with my bare finger
x Had a PTSD flashback during a conversation WITHOUT sulking for the rest of the day (I moved on really fast! I was completely okay!)
x Ate lunch all three days
x Slept at a decent time
x Joked around with classmates I didn't know
x Sat by a complete stranger when I didn't have to
x Went to the office by myself to ask a question
These are all simple things but at this time last year I could do none of them. I've improved by leaps and bounds! A few months ago, someone slamming a door could send me into a flashback that would have me shook into the next day. Now I just get pissed off by how inconvenient they are. I never thought I would ever get better. I wanted to stay in that comfortable state of torment because I was scared of who I would be without PTSD or OCD, since they make up such huge parts of who I am. I'm still a little nervous, but I've moved past that fear and I'm finally getting better!
soooo the first few days have been a success lol
